Thanks Taylor. I might just need those to add to my collection. Maybe not mod this pair.

The Gunits are brutally tempting. I wear size 13 lavers, would size 13 units be good?

From Lavers to G-units, the conversion is generally a half size smaller. Several people have disproven that conversion in a way, but it has worked for me in terms of a snug fit.

edit: I haven't really worn a pair of mesh G-units in my size, but I think they stretch a bit because the mesh is pretty soft. So maybe a full size down?

IGNORE ABOVE POST

Please forget I mentioned anything about the $40 Lavers on Endless.com. It appears that they're just unloading defective merchandise. I noticed that one of the shoes I received was quite a bit more narrow than the other. Unfortunately, I didn't catch this until after I already carved them up, so returning them is not an option.

On the bright side, this led me to discover that my old Avia cross-trainers work juuuuust fine for the simple kicking that I like to do. Live and learn...

Sorry for the bad info, guys (and gals). Hope everyone has a great weekend!
